FuelEU module streamlines data management and reporting from ship to shore to verifier, providing ship owners and operators with a compliance platform that enables a proactive approach to emissions reductions<\/p>\n
Helsinki, Finland: 28th August 2024 \u2013 NAPA, a global provider of maritime software and data services, has announced the launch of its FuelEU module. The new function is designed to help ship owners and managers comply with the European Union\u2019s upcoming FuelEU Maritime regulation, by measuring expected penalties in real time and simulating different compliance scenarios for their fleet.<\/p>\n
The FuelEU module’s initial rollout has demonstrated its ability to help owners and operators understand the carbon and dollar impact of the new regulation on their operations. The tool has been applied to around 1500 vessels through ClassNK\u2019s ZETA platform, empowering organizations to proactively reduce their carbon footprint and meet regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n
Using EU MRV and noon report data, as well as NAPA’s suite of ship performance analysis and simulation tools, the NAPA FuelEU module can help teams simulate various compliance scenarios and check expected penalties in real-time to evaluate different solutions, such as pooling, banking or borrowing CO2 emissions from the following year. This will provide new insights to help ship owners and operators determine the right operational changes to positively impact their fleets\u2019 fuel carbon intensity and ensure compliance.<\/p>\n
NAPA\u2019s FuelEU module will also help companies across all shipping segments streamline data collection and management, from ship to shore to verifier, to ease mandatory reporting. The FuelEU Maritime regulation will come into effect from 1 January 2025 and will apply to vessels over 5000 GT trading in the EU or European Economic Area (EEA). It will place a requirement on the GHG intensity of the energy used by vessels on a well-to-wake basis, to encourage the uptake of renewable and low-carbon fuels.<\/p>\n
The software behind the FuelEU module was developed by NAPA while insights on the regulatory and reporting requirements were provided by ClassNK. The next stage will see NAPA develop additional features, including simulating the impact of fuel changes for past and future voyages in terms of penalties, costs and emissions. The system will also recommend optimal compliance alternatives.<\/p>\n
Ossi Mett\u00e4l\u00e4, Product Manager, Shipping Solutions at NAPA<\/strong>, said: \u201cThe development of this module is a true testament to the power of collaboration. Bringing together ClassNK\u2019s regulatory expertise with our advanced digital capabilities and data insights, we are positioning our customers at the forefront of navigating shipping\u2019s energy transition.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n Mr. Katsuya Naito, General Manager of Green Transformation Center of ClassNK<\/strong>, added: \u201cNAPA\u2019s digital technology and maritime expertise has been critical in bringing our vision to life. We want to narrow the gap between regulation and compliance and with this new tool to simplify data management, reporting, and operational optimization, we can see incredible potential for emissions reduction action.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n About NAPA\u00a0\u00a0<\/em> FuelEU module streamlines data management and reporting from ship to shore to verifier, providing ship […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":245072,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[273,298],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-245071","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-maritimes-news","category-seagoing-maritimes-news"],"yoast_head":"\n
